For some perverse reason, the Pinoy mind continued to be COLONISED by the USA in 21st Century.
Funni they continue to sound happy even as they kenna much higher tariff than SG and Vietnam, a Communist country has almost the same tariff as Pinoyland. ..
Trump has a way of insulting those who continue to whore-ship the angmohs..and unsurprising, in a CNA commentary by a Pinoy, he is trying not to say how screwed Pinoys are..

The 19% tariff rate is still lower than what other neighbouring ASEAN economies got. Vietnam got 20% and Indonesia 19%. The two countries, which are not formal military allies of Washington, fared better in their negotiations with the US compared to the Philippines, a formal US treaty ally. Under Trump 2.0, it might be wise for the Philippines not to put all its economic eggs in the US basket.
